Meiosis Foldable Instructions
FOLDING:
Each student has 2 sheets of printer paper. Fold each piece of paper HOTDOG STYLE.
Keep the paper folded. Fold the paper down in half.
Keep it folded, and fold it down in half one more time.
Unfold the paper until it is back to the original hotdog bun fold.
Create 4 rectangular flaps by cutting along the 3 fold lines to the center fold.
Do the same (steps 1-5) for the other piece of paper.
Glue down the back side on page 46.
THIS SHOULD LOOK LIKE YOUR CELL THEORY FOLDABLE EXCEPT 4 WINDOWS INSTEAD OF 3.
The left side will be for MEIOSIS I and the right side will be for MEIOSIS II.
MEIOSIS BROCHURE ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS:
(Use textbook pages C120 and C121 as a guide for your work.)
Overview: Describe and illustrate the steps of MEIOSIS I and MEIOSIS II. The two brochures should both open from the
CENTER of the page. Use textbook pages C120 and C121 as your guide for each step of meiosis. Everything should be IN
COLOR and attractively and neatly placed on the brochure.
MEIOSIS I SIDE (This one opens from the right side and is on the left.)
On the outside of each flap, write the TITLE of the MEIOSIS I PHASE and then draw and label an ILLUSTRATION of that phase.
For example, flap 1 should say “MEIOSIS I – Prophase I,” and the drawing should be similar to the Prophase I image on page
C121 of your textbook. On flap 4, Telophase I and Cytokinesis are combined as they are on textbook page C121.
Inside each flap (not ON the flap), write the title of the phase again, and then write a description of what is happening
during that phase. (Refer to pages C120 and C121 of your textbook for help.)
MEIOSIS II SIDE (This one opens from the left side and is on the right.)
Follow the same steps that you did for Meiosis I, except the information is now for the phases of Meiosis II.
